This forum has so many gambling addicts

[maydna]

People here are playing gambling or not, it depends on them, and I am sure that when they were playing gambling, they know about the consequences of losing the money. We learn about gambling games by sharing what we know. Many of us are regular gamblers, but the others don't play gambling too often. But I am sure that there are people who can quit his/her addicting to gambling because of this forum.

And if there is a person who was still addicting in gambling, maybe he can learn from here so he can get a lesson on how to quit from gambling. I am sure that if he can learn from other people about solving the gambling addiction, he can get positive things from this forum because this forum is not talking about gambling games. Sometimes, we share many things which useful for our life.

yes, we must distinguish between gambling and drug addicts. if some gambling addicts lose a lot of money, they are less exposed to the risk of mental damage. but drug addicts are more at risk of developing mental illness because the price is expensive and he must always use it.

If we know that certain gambler, we can but that is hard unless you can always see him gambling.

Gambling addiction or Drug addiction, they have the same negative results and that is the disease or the disorder of the individual's brain. It is said to be a disorder of the brain, I am not a doctor but I can agree with that. We should not compare these two whether what is worst or what is better instead we should raise the awareness of it to help the people with those disorders.

Compare from outside of this forum the people who being an addicted from gambling are much more from people inside to this forum and i think if people gamble and they were complaining lost or regretting their decission while gamble still cannot be indicated as addiction and i think not all people here can be called addicted from gambling because i'm sure there are plenty of people who still gamble but they still can control theirself properly

[swogerino]

It is not that here are a lot of addicted gamblers rather it is that because bitcoin facilitates so much gambling and KYC/AML is not a problem in many online crypto casinos is the reason why you will see this high number of gamblers. Gambling addiction exists anywhere in the world but here is the only place the persons are anonymous and can share their ideas freely.

Addiction doesn't come from this forum.

I have never seen any place, real life or online, embrace gambling as much as this forum has. A little bit of gambling is okay but when you do it with the hope of making money it becomes a problem. The house ALWAYS wins. I see so many people here throw their money away at these online casinos.

I just banned myself from the casino IRL yesterday after losing $40 at Blackjack. I got 18, and the dealer got 20. See? It doesn't matter how good you are at the game, the odds are always stacked against you.

If this forum were embracing drug addiction, don't you think it wouldn't look as good?

How could drug addiction be connected to this forum? Of course, gambling is vastly used in this forum because of free advertisement on their sites and this is one of the places where online gamblers learned how to gamble.

I do not know what kind of parallels you make. This forum is full of users of different kinds and its normally that gamblers are share their loosing and winnings here, that's why there is a whole board for that! I do not know what is your problem, in the case if you are so disappointed in gambling and the forum - nobody holds you, leave.

[Ucy]

Lol you lost a bet and now you remember gambling isn't a good thing. There are millions of people here and out of that millions i doubt the percentage of regular gamblers are upto 0.5%. I think you are in the midst of gamblers that's why it looks like everyone is a gambler .


By the way, i read somewhere that decentralized gambling platform pay gamblers. Maybe this would be a new and productive way to gamble in the future.

Well this is the bitcoin forum that we are talking about and all sorts of people from different countries are active here. What do you expect? A little bit of gambling is what you consider having self-discipline and it may help the individual avoid losing tons of money. The house will always win depending IF you do not have any self-discipline and control over your addiction.

Wait, you said that a little bit of gambling is okay but you get yourself banned from a casino from losing your mind over. I really find it ironic as you contradict your statements.

The forum never embraced gambling and it never convinced people to do gambling as well. This forum is an avenue for business people to set-up their gambling business and it never convinced anyone to play as everything is subject to our free will and discretion.
Both gambling and drug usage stem from the same problem- which is ADDICTION. Search other posts and there are a ton of support posts and messages on how to overcome addiction.

This will always be the fact that more and more losing stories will be anytime more than winning stories as people lose more than winning . So people should be aware that those who just play to win will not be able to always win and end up on losing note most likely .

Because there are so many active discussion in this board then you say that there are many gambling addicts in this forum? If you mean so, you are absolutely wrong. There is no exact number of how many forum members are real gamblers, how many members like to talk about it only, and we do not know how many addicted members.

Addiction, generally is bad thing. But people get addicted for something like gambling i think it is not a big problem since they can control their finance. Because addicted wouldn't make us crazy and do bad thing to make our pleasure.

You might see it this way because with cryptocurrencies as this forum caters to its users makes it easier to gamble with then lets say going to a casino in real life to gamble.
You need transportation to get there then pay for parking then eventually pay for something to eat outside your home.
These expenses do build up and most would want to use these funds to bet with instead of paying for these things.
Just my point of view of your reaction to the section of forum whose focusing towards the members who gamble here is all.

It's because this is a crypto forum. Did you know that the first recipient or the first industry that take advantage of blockchain is the gambling industry? So don't be surprise if you find lots of gamblers around this community.

I don't think this forum intentions in the first place was to embrace gambling addiction here. I bet you can find other gambling forums much worst than this community.

To me that is not a problem and we can actually gamble to make money.  I have some guys in my country and the have been living on football betting and they are living will so I don't see anything wrong with it.  However becoming addicted to gambling is what I think is bad as you will always live a frustrated life.

[NavI_027]

Hello? You're in the Gambling section of this forum so it is natural to see gamblers here whether an addict or just occasional ones. What do you expect to see? Saints? ( just kidding)

If this forum were embracing drug addiction, don't you think it wouldn't look as good?

No, it's not. Maybe you're the only one who think like that, just because we talk a lot about gambling and are sharing our perspectives in its different aspects doesn't mean we already support addiction. I'm pretty sure that each one of us here knew that addiction is not a good thing, so why we would choose to embrace it? It's just a matter of common sense dude.

Khmm
You are wearing a casino signature

Probably he is only up to the signature campaign lol.

[pixie85]

The forum isn't embracing addiction but it's discussing it. It's good if people are able to share their experiences. OP is comparing gambling to drugs and i'm fine with discussing both of them. What is bad in a forum about drugs? There are many in the Internet.
Is it better to stay quiet because it's a sensitive topic? I think not.

[Shinpako09]

If you were going to compare the number of addicted gambler in physical casino. Sure thing they will outnumbered gamblers here. The reason I see why it seems you think that way is because stories of different gamblers has been discussed here publicly while in outside, they are keeping it in their own.

[Little Mouse]

If you say so many, it's wrong. I think most of the people only gamble for fun. No one take it seriously. Only some of the people who play for money is addicted to it. I am gambling for a long time but never dare to play a big amount cause I do it for fun.

Take note that not all people who do post on gambling section are addicts and most of them are just here to post because of signature campaign requirement. 

[whirlcoin]

We could not see everyone is addicted to gambling because gambling is like a entertainment and best way of money making so we could make a decision without any proof that people are only addicted to gambling.
